Just for Dog Owners

All our items are printed – not embroidered.    There are pros & cons to both processes:

Embroider is great for multi coloured images/logos & provides a longer lasting result.  But it is limited on colours & design.  Depending on the complexity of the design, the embroider can be quite heavy.  Can also have a tendency for the stiching to ‘pucker’ over time as the cotton shrinks in different ways. 

Subli printing is the process of printing a photograph onto products such as mugs and canvas photo frames.  This actually prints the ink directly into the product so it can’t distort/shrink/crack.  Only real downside is it can only be printed onto light coloured garments (i.e. White)

Custom cut vinyl – is the same process as used on sports shirts (like football shirt names & numbers).  The design is cut from special material that is then heat pressed into the garment.  Available in a wide range of colours and finishes – including gold, silver, leopard skin, zebra, metallic, hi-viz etc.  Perfect for letters, numbers, slogans & most logo’s.  Downside is it’s max 2 colour only.

Custom cut printed transfer .  This allows for a complex design or photograph to be printed to a transfer, which is then custom cut to fit the image shape before being heat-pressed to the garment.  Ideal for multi colour designs but limited to traditional shapes (square/rectangle/circle etc).  Football shirt badges are printed in this way.  Downside is the feel of this on lightweight garments.  Doesn’t last as long as Embroidery.

Sorry for the long winded explanation, but hopefully it makes sense  ???

You cannot print onto a fleece – only embroider.  But we have a range of products that are fleece inside and have a flat finish on the outside, like sweatshirt material.  Available with/without zip and with/without hoods.

:surprise:  That’s an interesting question.  Our Dogs fur seems to stick to everything so I’m not sure there is such a thing as a hair repelling material?

Those tabards are industrial products, so are hard wearing and crease/spill resistant. It’s not a top though.  It’s something worn over a top.

I’ve not seen or heard of fur/hair resistant material before.  If you’ve already got something that is, what material/blend is it made from?  That would help me identify the types of garment that might be – unless there is something special in the blend to make it specifically hair resistant.
